The UART-WIFI232-B2 is an industrial-grade embedded module that provides bidirectional transparent transmission between TTL serial (UART), WiFi (802.11b/g/n), and 100 Mbps Ethernet. It functions as a serial server, Modbus gateway, MQTT gateway, and HTTP client, enabling traditional serial devices or MCU-controlled equipment to quickly connect to wireless and wired networks.
Configuration is available via AT commands, a built-in web interface, or host serial port settings, making it flexible for a wide range of IoT and industrial automation applications.
Key Features
- Triple Interface – UART to WiFi, UART to Ethernet, and Ethernet to WiFi bridging
- Transparent Transmission – TCP Server/Client, UDP Server/Client modes
- MQTT Gateway – Subscribe to 6 topics and publish 6 topics simultaneously
- Modbus Gateway – Modbus TCP to Modbus RTU interconversion
- HTTP Client – Send and receive data from HTTP servers
- WebSocket Support – Real-time serial-to-web data interaction
- 100 Mbps Ethernet – Wired network connectivity alongside WiFi
- Multiple WiFi Modes – AP, STA, and AP+STA
- Built-in Web Interface – Configure IP, port, baud rate, and other parameters via browser
- AT Command Support – Query status and set parameters via serial commands
- Registration & Heartbeat Packets – Device identification and connection monitoring

Resources
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- baud
- Baud is the signalling rate of a serial connection, often used as the speed setting for UART communication. Matching the baud rate matters because both connected devices must use the same setting for readable data.
- IoT
- Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
- Modbus
- Modbus is an industrial communication protocol used by many meters, sensors, PLCs, and automation devices. Modbus support matters because it can make the controller easier to integrate with existing industrial equipment.
- Modbus RTU
- Modbus RTU is a version of Modbus commonly used over RS485 serial wiring. It matters if you need to connect the controller to industrial sensors, meters, or drives that use serial Modbus rather than Ethernet.
- Modbus TCP
- Modbus TCP is a version of Modbus that runs over Ethernet networks. It matters when connecting the controller to industrial systems that communicate over standard network cabling.
- MQTT
- A lightweight messaging protocol often used for IoT devices to publish and receive data through a server called a broker. It matters for home automation and sensor networks because it is simple, efficient, and widely supported.
- TTL serial
- A simple serial data connection that uses microcontroller logic-level signals rather than computer RS-232 voltage levels. It matters because the camera can connect directly to many microcontroller pins or a USB-to-TTL serial adapter, but not safely to an old-style RS-232 port without conversion.
- UART
- UART is a simple serial connection that sends data over separate transmit and receive wires, often labelled TX and RX. It matters because this module is designed to replace a wired UART cable with a wireless link while keeping the same serial data format.
